A Righteous Judge in China

A judge in a local court in Heibei Province of China was scheduled to try the case of a Falun Dafa practitioner who was detained for distributing materials revealing the truth about Falun Dafa. The judge had read Zhuan Falun and other materials about Falun Dafa. He clearly understood that all practitioners were kind people who are merely trying to let everyone know the truth of Falun Gong, and that they are saving people. Therefore, the judge did not sentence the practitioner and reached a verdict of "innocent".

A practitioner who had talked to this judge about Falun Gong asked him if he was afraid of encountering trouble since he was going against established government policies. The judge answered, "No, I am only acting according to my conscience. I am very happy that I didn't go against my better nature. Please tell your Teacher that I know Falun Dafa practitioners are good people. I would not sentence Master Li's disciples!"

Following the trial, several other staff members of the court prepared a report about the case for their superiors. In a surprising turn, all of them were reprimanded except for the judge. He did not even prepare a report on the case and still he was let go earlier than others. Practitioners told the judge later, "You were rewarded, because you did a deed of mighty virtue."
